I always thought that Newgrounds was a place to upload one's accomplishment, maybe I was wrong. Perhaps it is actually a garbage dump for trash like this.

Oh no, wait, it's just a moron abusing the video player by uploading his shitty LP.

Advice time: Samson C01U Condenser Mono USB microphone, Auralex foam, pop filters & mic sock. That's your laundry list to make your audio not utter shit as it is now.

Fluoride being a neurotoxin is a myth. Besides, the myth is based on larger quantities of fluoride than what's actually used to the point where there's more fluoride than water.

Hey, did you know that there's cyanide in almonds? What's that? Eating the almonds didn't kill you? That's because you're eating it in trace amounts, just like the fluoride.

The voice acting is performed under your breath and lacks any emotional investment. Here's a hint, if you want to reduce the mechanical impact of fast moving air on your microphone, get a pop filter.

Once again, the animation is so shitty and devoid of any effort it's to the point where the toothpaste the character's analyze is never shown on screen. This is amazingly shitty.

The background is obviously stolen, not further comment needed.

This is quite possibly the shittiest straw man I've seen in a while. You could argue that implants are a form of mind control or coupled with an explosive but what's the motive and what are the logistics of doing either one? For the brain to be controlled in the manner that is suggested here, the brain would have to be fully cyberized first. To detonate the device, if it was actually armed, you'd have to be both in range of the chip and know its protocols before you could do anything to it.

I also like how this straw man doesn't acknowledge the potential benefits of brain implants like a device that filters blood to prevent blood clots, tech that could prevent depression using a direct current to stimulate the left and right temporal lobes and a host of other shit that can save or improve lives.

Also, "for the same reason why people pierce their noses" is the most retarded example of a "non-motive" I've ever heard before. Remember, your example implies that you're comparing murder and mind control to body modification.

The best argument you could have provided would've been "What are the chances of the damn thing breaking or falling apart inside your head?" The malfunction argument is just about the most realistic argument you could've made and you skipped over it entirely.

By the way, the animation is horrible, the only character that ever moves has his arms tweened and it is noticeable. If you're gonna cheap-out, at least take a lesson from Legendary Frog or Waterman and not give your characters outlines to their limbs. Yes, I just told you to take a lesson from Waterman, that is is how pathetic of an animator you are. This also goes without mentioning all the other aspects of non-animation in this short, like how lip syncing is reduced down to a set of four frames of animation stretched across fifty frames. At the very least you could try to make your artwork not fucking shit but I know that is an unrealistic request. The "head explosion" is a definitive example of how much of a lazy shit you are, basically reducing catastrophic brain trauma to a crop of the character's head and having it tween off stage. This is shit.

Your voice acting is garbage, it sounds like you only did one take and went with it and struggled reading your own lines all throughout the first and only take. Well, the narrative flow of the voice acting is shitty, how about the emotional delivery? Oh right, it's dry, stale and sterile, devoid of any passion or investment.

It really doesn't help that you stole your background from an anime and put a blurred filter on it to prevent the pixels from showing and what's especially sad about that is the stolen background art is the element with the most amount of effort invested into it, mostly because someone else did it.

There is nothing of value here. Goodbye.

Why do you make unhelpful comment? Show me your work? Where is your work? What you got nothing better to do than log on to your other account to make a comment like this? You know I'll still be making cartoons. Anyway I only read a few sentences. I'm not going to bother reading the whole thing. You make comments just for the sake of causing trouble.

I took a look at your cartoons, It's more shittier than mind. Ugly, retarded, fat people call other people ugly, retarded and fat when they are it.

There appears to be a critical problem with your Flash movie, it goes straight to the replay button after you press play. This implies you have the replay button at the second frame and not at the ass end where it belongs. In fact, I downloaded the file and looked at it with Sothink SWF Decompiler and you did indeed stick it at second frame. Since it's also programmed to go to the second frame upon pressing it, I'm assuming this was unintentional. It needs to be fixed.

megadrivesonic responds:

I noticed this, i had to fix it twice already, don't worry i noticed.

The video is broken.

What fucktard is saving your shitty speed drawing videos? Are they saving your tripe because of ponyfaggotry?

SenpaiLove responds:

Or maybe just because other people actually like my videos and because I present them as something that can show some type of artistic view in this world. See psycho I don't know if your mad that I post drawings that actually look decent compared to yours or you just hate me because I'm a brony.With with I don't really care because it's people like you who should stay away from sites like these because you're a bad influence on others if you don't like my stuff it's fine I understand but don't shit on people for what they like.

Hey guys, I've got a great idea, let's bomb this open field where no one lives! There's nothing here so that makes it a great target to waste our precious resources on! It's not like we're fighting an uphill battle against the whole fucking world after all! We're evil so that makes us nonsensical! You do know that they never bombed civilian targets until the Battle of Britain, right?

The background assets are decent but they're not on par with say, Adam Philips. The animation, on the other hand, is horrible. I once critiqued a walking animation made by a contributor to the Edd's World movie and the review prompted him to take it down, this was beneath that by a milestone.

Your walking animations are overtly simplistic and terribly executed as I can plainly tell that in the opening animation sequence of the two characters walking up the hill there's only four frames of actual animation padded out to about twelve frames and among those four core frames the most detailed and accurate the animation gets to the actual act of walking is that he puts one knee forward, then a default standing position if you consider having both legs extend out behind you at once a normal standing position and then the other knee forward which uses the same art assets as the first frame with the small modification of erasing the conflicting outlines of one leg over the other. This means that neither character is truly walking any more so than they are just swimming in a vertical position through the air as they're not actually walking on the terrain but more or less just kicking backward.

Their bodies don't move up and down as they walk despite those odd support appendages the normals call "legs" moving out from under them and coming back to the central body of mass again, in fact their bodies move up as their legs move away so it's even worse. Furthermore, since they're being tweened across the stage that means they're never truly making contact with the ground as the animation in the movie clip symbol isn't connected with the pace of the motion tweening of the background, foreground and the forward movement of the movie clip containing that very walk cycle. Their legs are kicking faster than the progress they're making up the hill.

Even when they're framed so that you can't see their whole bodies, the walking cycle doesn't make any sense; the guy is bobbing forward and pulling back while the girl in the back just bobs forward and leaps back to the first frame of her animation. Even when you have forced perspective and hidden body parts on your side, you still failed to convince me that they were legitimately walking forward.

My suspicion that they're simply swimming forward by kicking their way through the air is completely confirmed when you get a back shot of the two running toward the cliff past the tree. This time you didn't fuck up the sequence of how the body should descend and reascend during the walk cycle because you didn't even bother trying that time, their upper bodies remain at the same Y axis as their legs kick back but never thrust forward.

I swear to Christ you almost pulled it off during the next shot where the perspective is set to their front and their lower bodies are hidden behind a hill because the animation and art is so simplistic it almost works... but then you show their legs once more and I swear they don't even touch the ground anymore, the man's shins are now stubs as the man lacks any feet to speak of and his right leg only extends a little bit to the ground before leaping back up.

Oh boy, now we get to see them talk with recycled mouth movements as their clothes blow so "violently" in the wind contrasted by the static grass in the background and-- oh my God, the features on their faces move freely across their faces but their heads never physically turn because effort is for amateurs. I didn't know one's eyes weren't directly connected to ones face, it's bad enough that you recycle the same three frames for mouth movements but you didn't do it to save your energy for bigger and better shit, you simply just suck.

By the way, the smoke animations are terrible. Take example from the author NEXTVIEW-designs that smoke is supposed to be smooth and freely expanding, not a laggy sequence of reused frames because you're too stupid or too monumentally lazy to even try to use the onion tool in Flash. They're also not meant to maintain the same shape as they tween to get bigger.

I'm honestly shocked by the way that the only time you get a walking animation right is when the perspective is set on the man's feet and nothing else. Not that it saves this movie, even a broken clock is always right twice a day.

By the way, the only way I'm honestly able to believe that you fucked up putting blood on a person's face is that you fucked up everything else so Goddamn hard.

I especially love how neither character knows that there's a war going on, one that has been in the works for decades. When you hear air plane blades spinning in the distance, one might consider the idea that they're fucking air planes.

By the way, I like how we only know the character's names through the fucking description box. Chase only says April's name at the end. That is HORRIBLE writing. It's like I'm watching Evil Land all over again as this is yet another example of unwarranted popularity from a bloated author.

keepwalking responds:

yes

This is so terrible that I have to leave a review. You are so bad at this that you now have to hear the sounds of a clogged toilet as regurgitated from my frontal lobe. Let's start with the most minor mistakes and climb our way up to the big trophies on why this is inexcusably bad.

First, in the background the seats to those chairs are flipped vertically upward and are resting against the spines of the chair. They're not up their all the way, their edges are drawn at 89 degree angles but that still implies that the seat is positioned vertically against the spine and not resting horizontally. I don't really mind Hanna Barbara style backgrounds but this is shit. All you had to do was draw a horizontal line, bring it near the bottom of the seat's back, put two lines drawn at 50 degree angles and put them together to where they make a pyramid and fill in the center with color. That's it but somehow you still managed to fuck that up despite the simplicity of it.

I also noticed that their Achilles tendons are apparently jointed but they somehow lack the proximal phalanges or any other joints in their toes since those never bend whenever they lift their feet off the ground. You could debate that it's because they're wearing shoes too big for their feet but not only would that be monumentally stupid but I wouldn't make such a debate given all the other mistakes made here.

Edd's right leg is apparently not attached to his body since the crotch of his pants never changes whenever his right leg moves back and forth, as in it literally shifts foreward and then back rather than rotating on his hip socket like it should.

On the army guy, I noticed that you copied the first frame of his animation cycle and pasted it at the end like an amateur. I was able to notice this because he chugs whenever bringing his leg forward. You need to remove one of them so that way all the other flaws aren't as obvious.

I've also noticed that whenever Edd punches the army guy in the face that he not only has his thumb tucked beneath his fingers for the superior bone breaking way but his thumb is also much, much thinner than all of his other fingers, unrealistically so. I also like how Ed is punching the guy with his intermediate phalanges instead of with his knuckles, almost like he's knocking on a door. He really wants something in his hand to break, doesn't he?

Finally we have our biggest flaw yet, both characters are defying gravity as they "walk". Even an eight year old can tell you that whenever your legs are spread apart that your body is gonna go closer to the ground. That's because the things supporting it are moving away from it yet somehow both of them remain at the same Y axis despite the fact that their legs are parting and coming back together. This is especially evident when the army guy's feet are both in mid air and his body in no way shape or form comes any closer to the ground.

On an additional note, it's never acceptable to upload shitty test files to the Flash portal. Especially when there's an utter lack of any preloader at all. I just love it whenever a submission instantly plays without warning or my prompting it to do so. If I were the lead director of this movie, I would not hire you.

"We plan on sharing a video like this for a lot of art so we hope this meets the expectation and approval of the good folks at newgrounds"

It doesn't. We do our best to strangle speed drawing videos in their cribs here, "friend".

therapistgames responds:

coolio...i wont upload any more speed drawings

Nobody fucking cares that this was made with a scene creator or not, in fact, that fact alone removes this from being an animation at all and characterizes this as a Let's Play. Even if this was classified as an animation, legitimately I mean, it'd still be a piece of shit since it lacks any audio whatsoever, it was created using sprites you didn't make and not only that, you didn't even animate the sprites, you used the animations that were prebuilt into the scene creator for your "animation". All you really did was plot the trajectories of the premade animations and record it with a trial of Bandicam.

Furthermore, given your low, low, low-ass disposition of having done this, it's generally unwise to throw fire-fits at the critics who can see through your bullshit and know that it is, in fact, bullshit.

Also, to the idiots who are calling this a Flash animation, learn what Flash is.
